Re: [squid-users] About Auth and Multiple Squid

Perfect!

I just used the line below and it goes fine thru
both proxies, the first proxy do not have any
authentication directives, the parent is doing
authentication thru LDAP.

cache_peer 192.168.1.13 parent 3128 3130 default login=PASS

Many thanks!
